Why Vegan Cuisine?

A balanced vegan diet (also referred to as a plant-based diet) meet many current healthy eating recommendations such as eating more fruit vegetables and whole grains and consuming less cholesterol and saturated fat. Balanced vegan diets are often rich in vitamins, antioxidants and fiber and can decrease the chances of suffering from diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, stroke and some cancers

Public awareness of the condition of factory farmed animal is gradually increasing and it is becoming more and more difficult to claim not to have at least some knowledge of the treatment they endure. Sentient, intelligent animals are often kept in cramped and filthy conditions where they cannot move around or perform their natural behaviors. At the same time, many suffer serious health problems and even death because they are selectively bred to grow or produce milk or eggs at a far greater rate than their bodies are capable of coping with.

Plant based diets only require around one third of the land and water needed to produce a typical Western diet. Farmed animals consume much more protein, water and calories than they produce, so far greater quantities of crops and water are needed to produce animal “products” to feed humans than are needed to feed people direct on a plant-based diet. With water and land becoming scarcer globally, world hunger increasing and the planet’s population rising, it is much more sustainable to eat plat foods direct than use up precious resources feeding the farmed animals.

What is SEITAN?
Although it is made from wheat, seitan
has little in common with flour
or bread. Also called “wheat meat”,
“wheat gluten” or simply “gluten”, seitan
becomes surprisingly similar to the
look and texture of meat when cooked,
making it a popular meat substitute.
Seitan is also high in protein, making
it a popular protein source for vegans.

What is TOFU?
Tofu is made from soybeans, water
and a coagulant, or curdling agent. It
is high in protein and calcium and well
known for its ability to absorb new
flavors through spices and marinades.
Due to its chameleon-like qualities and
nutritional value tofu, a staple of Asian
cuisines for hundreds of years, has recently
become popular in Western vegetarian
cooking.

What is TEMPEH?
Tempeh is made from cooked and
slightly fermented soybeans and
formed into a patty, similar to a very
firm veggie burger. Many commercially
prepared brands add other grains, such
as barley, and also add spices and extra
flavors. Although tempeh is made from
soy, it has a unique taste and is mildly
flavorful on it’s own, unlike tofu.
